Verdict

A couple of these are clear at the weights but Steel Train was well beaten in a claimer here in December when rated 95 and it could pay to stick with MISTER MUSIC. The latter came out best over course and distance when dropped into selling company earlier in the month and is also preferred to Los Camachos. The latter finished in front of Steel Train when fourth here last month and should be thereabouts once again while Dark Alliance beat lower rated opposition than this to land a claimer over 7f here last time with Misty Birnam well beaten and looks best of the rest.
